Hi, What is your original door facing? Thank you.

Bazi makes use of the lunisolar calendar (e.g. 24 sub-seasons). Zi Wei Duo Shu used the Lunar calendar. Both are different sub-systems although they share the same idea of unravelling destinies. The difference lies in the markers used to mark time. Date selection has more sub-systems. From the simpler 12 Officer, Dong Gong to the more estoeric Xuan Kong Da Gua, Qi Men Dun Jia. Each subsystems have various strengths and weakness. For example, the 12 Officer system is simpler to use because there are less constraints e.g. matching with birth date. Qi Men Dun Jia is sometimes used to pick a good hour within a 'not so good hour' for specific task. Therefore it will be easier to see the application and determine the suitable date selection system.

For beginners, use the sponge type of roller brush. This type of roller brush is best for walls on the go and there is a smaller version for tricky corners e.g. near door frames, switches. Ceiling paints comes in 18L format at good price, so no need to buy expensive 5L white paint, overkill. Service yard areas can be painted with exterior white but please get windows or the dust will kill you over time.

Assuming 168 degrees facing out of front door, The * and south west sector are missing . Hence the wealth aspect of this flat will be weaker than average.

Stir the SW and still NE, thats the mantra. notice why the singapore govt goes big time at SW part of Singapore?! Coincidence. Malaysia boleh and attempts to stir water at the SW too! if you have main door or building facing sw, that is half the battle won. with a strong mountain or building at ne, bagus, picture is complete. if you have a big pool/body of water at SW with main door facing, you should be rocking. but boss, if sw happens to be a bad direction for you, it means some small penalties (small worries). 8 => earth, prominent young man, hands/fingers!

vincent koh's fengshui book is good. however information is sparse regarding eight mansion through he has an interesting idea to harmonize favorable directions for spouse with different kua number. the section regarding Trigram school has a few pages. there are some nice sections regarding San He water formulas. kinokuniya probably has some copies. there is another Master Course in Fengshui by Eva Wong. it is a serious book but your background of chinese metaphysical must be of certain standard. for example, she explains why 1,6 at facing palace is bad at the south with no addition clarification (1,6)=> water frame, malevolent in south (fire, later trigram arrangement) among eight mansions, there are almost no good english books other than Adelina Pang's beginners' guide to Fengshui (out of print) Eight Mansions, there are two schools of thoughts, some claims house have kua numbers while others believed personal kua is more important! both sides have interesting ideas regarding how to utilise house to max benefits. regarding Xuan Kong Da Gua, there are almost no english books or translations so far, let alone date selection other than Joey Yap's interesting book on personal date selection.

however lets think about this carefully. openings to the room via windows or doors. if they are located at the good locations, this means good energies can enter the room, therefore direction of the bed is not so important. just find the most convenient place ! (obviously not adj to toilet -)

if the NW is missing, does it implies every male in the building has problems? unlikely. probably not, other factors may come into play, it is almost impossible to get a regular shape house. in fact, there is little feng shui improvement for apartments (probably why most remain middle class throughout their lives) can u change the door location? stove and bedrooms? environment is very important. check any ugly physical structures e.g. smoke stack. the next important factors will be main door facing, house facing and building facing and window placement. if you are adjacent the lift, it is not so good keep the main door neat and clean and pls keep those smelly shoes in racks. strategic placement of lights and waters will do more wonder as they are 'lively' with respect to static placements of decorative gadgets. yo, whats the salt suppose to do? this salt water cure is an interesting idea to counter supposedly the effects of naughty 'five yellow'. it is hygroscopic which probably explains the mess after a few months which most people believed it 'absorbed' the evil 'five yellow' energies it does have some merits, however the closest association that i can think of is weak metal. a clever method regardless.

in fact, color has little/insignificant impact with regards to feng shui.

hi, what is the date of completion for this building? tks
